Lopez, a Top Rank fighter who fights on ESPN and defends his unified lightweight titles in Marchroom Boxing, which was aired on DAZN by Hearn.
Eddie Hearn said that Teofimo Lopez was shocked to lose to George Kambosos Jr.
However, disaster struck when Kambosos won a dramatic upset on points to win the WBA, IBF and WBO 'Franchise’ belts from the American.
Lopez's father and trainer Teofimo Sr. then accused Hearn of being a promoter.
Boxing Social was told by him: "I feel sorry for him. I know that his dad wants to blame me for the fact he lost.
"It kind of comes with territory, I suppose, but he deserves a lot more credit for showing a lot heart."

"I said, "Listen, we treated your with incredible respect." I love Teofimo, I love his dad, good people. You have to let go of delusion."
Hearn, who was the second-highest bidder for the fight, only inherited it after Triller, a social media platform, failed to find a date.
Lopez, 24, was fighting in New York. He was later heckled by his fans after interrupting Kambosos’ post-fight interview to insist that Lopez had won.
His father went on to describe it as a "robbery", and an 'easy fight" for his son. He talked down the possibility of a rematch and instead suggested moving up to super-lightweight.
Kambsos is 28 years old and is looking forward to a fight for the undisputed WBC title.

Kambosos will be at the ringside to help him find his next opponent.
